Explores our intimate relationship with the digital through the lens of poetic elegy. A thematic fusion of the zero-one rhythms of binary code with the pulse of elegiac couplets.

This highly anticipated debut from poet, artist and AI researcher Sasha Stiles captures both the thrill and peril of our intimate relationship with technology, fusing the zero-one rhythms of binary code with the pulse of elegiac couplets in a hybrid text unlike any ever written.
